Lu Yuxing didn't ask much about the audition.The two had a simple dinner, and the pet hospital sent someone to bring Xiaoxing back.

"small star!"

Tang Tang squatted down and hugged the big guy that was flying towards him, rubbing his face in the fluffy fur on top of its head.

"Did you listen to the doctor's words during the physical examination at the hospital today, huh?" He held Xiaoxing's two front paws and teased him like a child.

"Wow!" Xiaoxing grinned and stuck out her tongue at him.

Lu Yuxing packed up the dishes and came out of the kitchen. "Tang Tang, change your clothes, it's time to go."

Xiao Xing, who was enjoying being caressed, heard his voice, immediately raised her head vigilantly, and stared at Lu Yuxing with her small dark eyes.

"Okay." Tang Tang hugged the grinning Xiao Xing, "Xiao Xing, this is your brother Lu, don't be cruel to him."

Lu Yuxing: "..."

Tang Tang didn't notice anything wrong.He bowed and picked up Xiaoxing, and moved it to Lu Yuxing. "Come on, shake hands with Brother Lu." He held Xiao Xing's paw with a smile on his face, and the big dog writhed reluctantly in his arms twice, whimpering.

Glancing at the paw in front of him, Lu Yuxing reached out to shake it solemnly. "Hi Xiaoxing, my name is Lu Yuxing, and I'm your brother Tangtang's boyfriend."

Tang Tang let out a "poof" laugh, his face flushed.

"Okay, we'll be good friends from now on, let's get along well." He lowered his head and kissed Xiao Xing on the top of his head, and then leaned forward to imprint Lu Yuxing's face.

Comfort Xiaoxing, and the two drove off.

Tang Tang was wearing a light-colored hooded sweater and plain jeans. Although they were all famous brands, they were much cheaper than the clothes he usually wore.He was sitting in the co-pilot, looking at the tall buildings outside the window with his eyes open, trying to relax himself.

While waiting for the traffic light, Lu Yuxing looked at him from the corner of his eye.He looked out of the window with a calm expression, the bangs that had been trimmed not long ago were laid obediently on his forehead, and he looked like a gentle sheep.

"I'll wait for you outside later." Lu Yuxing said, "There are several crews auditioning together today, so be careful."

Tang Tang turned his head blankly and asked, "What are you careful about?"

The green light is on.

"Everything, protect yourself." Lu Yuxing started the Porsche, and the breeze came in through the gaps in the car window, "You look so easy to deceive."

Tang Tang pursed his lips in dissatisfaction.

Lu Yuxing glanced at him, then changed his words: "...so cute."

There was a brief silence in the car.

After a long time, Tang Tang reached out to turn on the radio station, turned his face away and did not speak.Lu Yuxing's ears were also a little red, he shook the steering wheel in embarrassment, and remained silent.

The newly released love song of the popular female singer sang all the way, and the Carol Hotel finally arrived.

This is not a very high-end hotel, but there are many film and television companies and TV stations around, so it is often used as a meeting room or audition location.

"Go." Lu Yuxing patted the back of Tang Tang's hand, "I'll park the car and wait for you in the lobby."

"Okay." Tang Tang unbuckled his seat belt and leaned forward for a kiss.

Their car was parked right in front of the hotel, and the actors and crew who came to audition came and went, and they could be seen just by turning their heads slightly.

Lu Yuxing hesitated for a moment, then hugged him and kissed him.

"The audition went well." He touched Tang Tang's face and opened the car door for him.

"It will go well." Tang Tang got out of the car with a smile and waved to him.

The sound on the radio stopped, and the moment the door closed, the air in the car was quiet.

Sitting in the car, Lu Yuxing watched Tang Tang go up the steps from a distance, and then entered the hall under the guidance of the staff, and disappeared into the crowded crowd.

When Tang Tang was completely out of sight, Lu Yuxing drove around the main entrance of the hotel and parked in the parking lot behind the hotel.

After turning off the engine, he planned to sleep in the car for a while before going to the lobby to wait for Tang Tang.

Just as he closed his eyelids, the cell phone thrown in the back seat rang.

Lu Yuxing subconsciously touched the brick-like mobile phone several times, and when he found that there was no response, he paused for a moment before returning to his senses.

Unaccustomed to answering the phone, Bai Zhi's voice came from the other side.

"Mr. Lu, you and Tang Tang are who, why don't you tell me?"

His tone was awkward and tinged with fear.

Lu Yuxing laid the back of the chair flat. "Which one? I thought you could find out everything."

"Of course!" Bai Zhi coughed in embarrassment, "Don't worry, I won't be prejudiced just because you are that."

"Thank you." Lu Yuxing refused to listen to his nonsense, "How is the investigation going?"

"We sent colleagues to follow him..."

"Stalking?" Lu Yuxing frowned, his voice sullen. "Remove the person. You can find any way to investigate, but you can't follow him."

Bai Zhi was confused and stared for a long time with his mouth open. "But……"

"Remove." Lu Yuxing raised his voice, "Otherwise our cooperation will end here."

"Okay, okay," Bai Zhi was afraid, and didn't dare to ask any more words, "I'll call my colleagues from Xiangtan Road to come back immediately."

Outside the parking lot, the staff walked by in twos and threes, talking about the good-looking young actor.

"I asked you to investigate his grandfather before, what did you find?" Lu Yuxing asked.

"Found it. His grandfather Tang Xingguo lives in Canada now," Bai Zhi said, "but he deposited a sum of money in a European bank."

Lu Yuxing pressed the center of his eyebrows, "An old man living in North America, depositing things in a European bank?"

"We also find it very strange, but the security and privacy over there are so good that we can't find out what it is." Bai Zhi explained, "But the old man travels back to Europe every year, so he goes to the bank to check." He paused, "It should be something very important that made him go so hard every year to confirm it."

"Got it." Lu Yuxing looked at the gradually darkening sky outside the car window, "It's hard work."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Yuxing stared blankly at the bright orange line in the sky for a long time, and he lost sleepiness long ago.

Two hours later, he got out of the car, walked around to the front door, and entered the lobby.

Exactly the same as in memory.The audition area on the left side of the hall was full of staff, and the reporter was stopped at the door, and kept shooting inside.

Lu Yuxing glanced at the team inside, but he didn't find Tang Tang.He sat in the booth in the lobby and waited for a while, seeing that Tang Tang hadn't come out, he got up and went to the bathroom.

There are many meeting rooms and rooms to go from the lobby to the restrooms.The audition areas of other crews were also crowded with people. The air in the narrow aisle was thin, mixed with the smell of various cosmetic powders and perfumes, which made people frown.

Lu Yuxing felt inexplicably agitated when he was stuck among the actors queuing up.

Ten meters away.

The bathroom was very quiet, Tang Tang washed his hands humming a song, feeling good.

The interview passed quickly, and he was also lucky to get a top number during the audition, and he came out after the performance.He performed very well, and director Chen responded well, so let him go back and wait for the announcement.

The faucet rattled.Tang Tang carefully washed the dust off his hands, and was thinking about what to eat with Lu Yuxing at night, when a voice suddenly sounded from behind.

"Young man, would you consider coming to our crew for an audition?"

He froze for a moment, then looked up and saw a tall middle-aged man in the mirror.He was wearing a black peaked cap and an old windbreaker jacket.The brim of the hat covered his eyes, revealing only half of his face which was somewhat flat.

Tang Tang looked at him blankly and turned off the faucet.

"Which crew are you the teacher?"

""Urban Romance"." The man took a step forward and said, "I'll take you to the scene, the director will definitely like you."

Tang Tang took a step aside, turned around, and rested his back on the marble sink.There was a trace of wariness in his eyes, "I have never heard of this crew."

"We are a small low-budget film." The man propped his hand on the sink, and said in a persuasive manner, "Our crew is treated very well. There are so many people auditioning for director Chen's crew today, how could it be your turn?" He leaned forward oppressively, "I think you are really suitable for our film, don't miss this opportunity."

There was silence in the bathroom, the doors of the cubicles were all open, and no one was there.

"I won't go, thank you." Tang Tang gritted his teeth, turned around and opened the door to leave.

As soon as he turned around, he felt the collar of his clothes being pulled suddenly, and he fell backwards uncontrollably.

"Damn, shame on your face."

The man behind grabbed his collar, Tang Tang was about to yell when his mouth was covered.He struggled hard, using all the self-defense skills that Tang Ruize usually asked him to practice, but he still couldn't break free.

"Fuck, the little rabbit is pretty good at kicking people." The man put his arms across his body, grabbed him hard, and dragged him into the compartment, "It's still a rich little rabbit. accurate."

Tang Tang's eyes were red, and he struggled desperately, his fingernails stuck in the back of his hand.

He had carefully calculated everything, but he didn't expect to fall here.

"Give up, no one will come in." The man dragged him into the cubicle, kicked the door hard with his feet, and roughly tore his clothes.

Tang Tang bit his hand, and the other party let go instinctively with a howl of pain.Taking advantage of this gap, he shouted with all his strength: "—Help!"

Before he could speak, a crisp "slap" landed on his face.

"Call again, I'll smash your face." The man warned him viciously, took out a cloth from his pocket, and covered his mouth.

"Well!"

Tang Tang struggled, but felt that all the strength in his body was draining rapidly, and the scene in front of him became more and more blurred.

He leaned against the wall of the cubicle, the man lifted the hem of his clothes, an unprecedented fear climbed up his back, it was cold and biting.

--boom!

A loud noise came from the bathroom door.The man's hands paused, and as soon as he turned his head, the door of the compartment was pushed open in an instant.

"Hold!"

The man's head was bleeding directly from the door, he rushed out of the cubicle angrily, and before he could swear a word, a well-polished leather shoe kicked him in the face.

Tang Tang sat slumped in the corner with confused eyes, looked out from the opened door, and saw the man's hat fly out, his whole face became distorted and out of shape in an instant.Accompanied by a crisp sound, his head was turned aside in an extremely weird way, and two teeth were smashed out mixed with blood, and fell on the white tiles.

Soon, the visitor didn't stop for a moment, and then punched the man on the bridge of the nose again, knocking him to the ground.

As the man fell to the ground, the face of the visitor finally appeared behind the door.

Lu Yuxing was like a crazy wolf, his red eyes fixed on the man on the ground.His chest was heaving violently, and his clenched fist was full of veins, with blood on it.

The man on the ground squirmed twice in pain with his head in his arms. Lu Yuxing had murderous intent in his eyes. He rolled up his sleeves and threw himself on the man's face again.

It wasn't until a slight sound came from the compartment that he regained his composure, stopped, stood up abruptly, came in and hugged Tang Tang.

"It's okay, it's okay, Tangtang don't be afraid."

Tang Tang couldn't see anything clearly, only smelled a bloody smell.He was hugged by Lu Yuxing, but he couldn't stand up at all, and he sat slumped on the ground.

He called "Brother Lu" in a daze, and fell into a coma.

The author says:

A little foreshadowing.Tang Tang has always called Lu Yuxing "A Xing", but here he is called "Brother Lu".
